Tammy Slaton, star of TLC’s 1000-Lb. Sisters, revealed she has slimmed down to 281 pounds—a weight she hadn’t seen since elementary school. Documenting her journey since 2020, when she weighed 725 pounds, Slaton credits bariatric surgery in 2022 and dedicated lifestyle changes for her dramatic transformation.
Slaton, 38, has shed 440 pounds, ditched her walker, and reduced her oxygen use after years of dependence. While she hopes to undergo skin removal surgery, her doctor has advised continued weight loss to qualify. “I’m not the ‘big’ baby sister no more,” she said, celebrating her progress and newfound independence.
Her inspiring journey highlights perseverance and the impact of healthier choices.
